    MFC: Fix calendar -a processing of files included in the user's home
directory

    The existing code performed a chdir() into the home directory, but the
    parser fell back to using the invoking user's home directory as the base
    directory for the search for an include file.

    Since use of the -a option is limited to UID==0, the directory searched
    was typically ~root/.calendar, not the .calendar directory of the user
    whose file is being processed.

    (cherry picked from commit 3fa2a149d68d22fa32ba7b6c09773388ac490fd1)

    The code in -CURRENT is quite different (forks sub-processes tp
    process the files for each user) but this change should provide the
    same functionality as the referenced commit to -CURRENT.
